Answer: Ms.Kork paid $21500 for the car.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x represent the amount of money that Ms.Kork paid for the car.

The amount for which she sold the car was $100 more than two fifths of what she had paid for the car originally. The expression would be

2x/5 + 100

Ms.Kork sold her car for $8,700. It means that

2x/5 + 100 = 8700

2x/5 = 8700 - 100

2x/5 = 8600

Cross multiplying by 5, it becomes

2x = 8600 × 5

2x = 43000

x = 43000/2

x = $21500

BRAINLIEST!!! I need help ASAP how do I find the percent change from 1960 to 2000
SVEN [57.7K]

Answer:

percentage change  from 1960 to 1970 =( 0.11 ÷0.25 ) × 100

                                 = 44 %  

Percentage change from 1970 to 1980 =( 0.83 ÷ 0.36) × 100

                                                                 = 230.55%

 percentage change from 1980 to 1990 = ( 0.16 ÷ 1.19) × 100

                                               = 13.44%

percentage change from 1990 to 2000 = (- 0.09 ÷ 1.35) × 100

                                             = -6.667%                                              

Step-by-step explanation:

Item : 1960      1970          1980           1990             2000

gallon: $0.25  $0.36        $1.19    $1.35                 $1.26

change : 0.36 - 0.25 = 0.11

percentage change  from 1960 to 1970 =( 0.11 ÷0.25 ) × 100

                                 = 44 %

 Percentage change from 1970 to 1980 =( 0.83 ÷ 0.36) × 100

                                                                 = 230.55%

 percentage change from 1980 to 1990 = ( 0.16 ÷ 1.19) × 100

                                               = 13.44%

percentage change from 1990 to 2000 = (- 0.09 ÷ 1.35) × 100

                                             = -6.667%

How can you rewrite the expression (8-5i)^2 in the form of a +bi
olchik [2.2K]
\bf \textit{recall that }i^2=-1\\\\
-------------------------------\\\\
(8-5i)^2\implies (8-5i)(8-5i)\implies 64-40i-40i+(5i)^2
\\\\\\
64-80i+(5^2i^2)\implies 64-80i+(25\cdot -1)\implies 64-80i+(-25)
\\\\\\
64-80i-25\implies 39-80i
